Excerpt from Roman Medallions in the British Museum This volume contains a Catalogue of the Roman Medallions in the British Museum. The metal of each specimen is given, and its size in inches and tenths. The weight of all examples in gold and silver is stated in English grains. Tables for converting grains into grammes, and inches into millimetres, as well as into the measures of Mionnet's scale, are given at the end of the volume (pp. 152-154). A table of dates and titles also there given (pp. 131-151) will enable the reader to find the year or period to which each medallion may be ascribed. Every medallion of interest is figured in the plates, which are executed by the Autotype mechanical process from casts in plaster, except in the case of the finest specimens, which are from drawings by Miss Godsall. The work has been drawn up under my direction by Mr. Herbert A. Grueber, Assistant in the Department of Coins and Medals. In the revision I have had the valuable aid of Mr. Head, Assistant Keeper, and Mr. Gardner, Assistant in the same Department.

To all those who witnessed his extraordinary conquests, from Albania to India, Alexander the Great appeared invincible. How Alexander himself promoted this appearance—how he abetted the belief that he enjoyed divine favor and commanded even the forces of nature against his enemies—is the subject of Frank L. Holt's absorbing book. Solid evidence for the "supernaturalized" Alexander lies in a rare series of medallions that depict the triumphant young king at war against the elephants, archers, and chariots of Rajah Porus of India at the Battle of the Hydaspes River. Recovered from Afghanistan and Iraq in sensational and sometimes perilous circumstances, these ancient artifacts have long animated the modern historical debate about Alexander. Holt's book, the first devoted to the mystery of these ancient medallions, takes us into the history of their discovery and interpretation, into the knowable facts of their manufacture and meaning, and, ultimately, into the king's own psyche and his frightening theology of war. The result is a valuable analysis of Alexander history and myth, a vivid account of numismatics, and a spellbinding look into the age-old mechanics of megalomania.

"Nothing of the former world holds true anymore," Zofia Nalkowska wrote in her Wartime Diaries on 7 May 1943. "Nothing has remained." The burning of the Warsaw ghetto had broken Nalkowska's privileged life in two; in the years to come, the need to bear witness to the horrors she had seen firsthand would lead this gifted member of the Polish avant-garde to write the stories in Medallions.
